Excellent scene Matt. Very very natural setting that looks lived in and very realistic. I guess youŽll be adding figures??

Hi Matt
Great scene. Go along with all the others on this, superb ground work, variation in planting, lived in look.
All I would say is I spotted a figure in the corner that looks like an old Tamiya one. I'm hoping this was just for some planning purpose. Please don't use their old horrible figures and spoil this diorama. Go for a modern manufactured set from Dragon, Tristar....anybody in fact but the horrible undersized blobs Tamiya still insists on selling. Some of their newer sets are better but still not Gen2 Dragon stuff by a long shot.
Great modelling, look forward to up dates.
all the best

thnx plasticbattle for helping me out with pics. and thnx for comments.
furthermore, i should let you all know that this is a country backroad into carantan where the germans have aset up an outpost with an mg nest and a roadblock (where a wirblewind will also be on the road helping deffend the outpost and help block the road). the outpost is an old ruined burned out post office. the german have set up a makeshift camp in it while also making it a mg nest and a command post ro relaying orders, messages, etc.

Excellent scene Matt, wow! Your vegetation and building are top notch, fantastic work. Looking forward to you adding some figures, your Whirbelwind will add a whole new dimension to it!
